Strict disciplinarian (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

martinet

'strict disciplinarian' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for martinet that I've seen before include "Trite man becomes a tyrant" , "A strict disciplarian" , "A rigorous operator" , "drillmaster" , "Rigorous figure" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
