Tell where pupil found? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

inform

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

'tell' is the definition.
(I know that tell is a more specific form of inform)

'pupil found?' is the wordplay.
'pupil' becomes 'in' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'found?' becomes 'form' (both can mean to establish or set up).
'in'+'form'='INFORM'

'where' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for inform that I've seen before include "Grass - doing well" , "Provide facts - playing well" , "Put wise" , "'Apprise, notify (6)'" , "Spill the beans" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
