Schism (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

split

'schism' is the definition.
(I know that schism can be written as split)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for split that I've seen before include "Discontinue a relationship" , "Divide; leave suddenly" , "Divide - Croatian port" , "Go separate ways" , "Cleave or break up" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times and The Telegraph.
