Teachers sorting out the classrooms (13)
I believe the answer is:
schoolmasters
'teachers' is the definition.
(I know this)
'sorting out the classrooms' is the wordplay.
'sorting out' indicates anagramming the letters.
'the'+'classrooms'='theclassrooms'
'theclassrooms' is an anagram of 'SCHOOLMASTERS'.
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
