School breaks up (6)
I believe the answer is:
harrow
'school' is the definition.
(famous UK public school)
I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for harrow that I've seen before include "Plough, school" , "English public school - farm implement" , "Agricultural frame for breaking up soil" , "Cultivator that breaks up the soil" , "Soil-breaker; school" .)
