I am a current Clarendon scholar and my wife/partner is pregnant. Does the Clarendon Fund offer paternity leave?
Yes, if the Clarendon Scholarship is still tenable during the period that would be affected by paternity leave. Clarendon scholars are offered two weeks (10 working days) paid paternity leave. Your Clarendon Scholarship will be extended for the period of time that you take paternity leave. Your course end date will not be extended and you are not expected to suspend your status during this time. To claim paternity leave and pay, scholars must notify the Graduate Funding team no later than the fifteenth week before the expected week of your partner’s childbirth. For full details of the Clarendon Fund paternity leave provision, or to request a face-to-face appointment to discuss your situation, please contact Graduate Admissions & Funding.
