I believe the answer is:

educationalists

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'skilled teachers' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both people as well as being plural nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'in a class edit out broadcast' is the wordplay.
'broadcast' indicates anagramming the letters (letters scattered or cast around).
'in'+'a'+'class'+'edit'+'out'='inaclasseditout'
'inaclasseditout' with letters rearranged gives 'EDUCATIONALISTS'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for educationalists that I've seen is " Certain specialists".)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
