Unjustified belief in education (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

intuition

'unjustified belief' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'in education' is the wordplay.
'education' becomes 'tuition' (tuition is a kind of education).
'in'+'tuition'='INTUITION'

(Other definitions for intuition that I've seen before include "Instinct" , "women are known for it" , "Suspicion" , "Gut feeling" , "Innate understanding" .)

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