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> question first answered 05/11/2014 15:55:17 answering member 3995
