The government’s recent budget announcement brings notable changes to the minimum wage, including an 18% increase for apprentices to £7.55 per hour, set to take effect in April 2025. This move aims to alleviate living costs for young people entering the workforce, providing more financial support as they begin their careers.

What Are the New Minimum Wage Rates?

From April 2025, apprentices will see their minimum wage rise significantly, bringing it closer to the rates set for other entry-level workers. Alongside this boost, other minimum wage categories will also increase, marking an effort to address rising living costs for young employees. For apprentices, this pay raise can make vocational pathways more appealing, offering a balance between earning and learning without sacrificing income during their training.
