<p>Information on apprenticeship pay in England, Wales and Northern Ireland is published
in research findings from the Apprenticeship Pay Survey. The most recent survey covers
apprentices working in 2012:</p><p> </p><p><a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/apprenticeship-pay-survey-2012"
target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/apprenticeship-pay-survey-2012</a></p><p>
</p><p>In England, 71 per cent of apprentices received on or above the minimum amount
they should get based on their year and/or age. In Wales the figure was 82 per cent</p><p>
</p><p>The 2014 Apprenticeship Pay Survey will be published in December 2014.</p><p>
</p><p>The report does not show how many apprentices under 19 earned less than £90
per week, as it does not link hours worked to pay rates. However, the mean average
hourly rate for apprentices under 19 was £3.77 in England and Wales and £3.34 in Northern
Ireland.</p><p> </p>
