Sunak said this means that for someone aged 24 on this program, the six-month grant would be around £6,500 and employers can top up this pay. He said that the government would pay businesses £2,000 for every new apprentice they hire under the age of 25, in addition to the £1,000 it already provides for 16-18 year-olds and those aged under 25 with special education needs.

Another £17 million is to be used to triple the number of places in sector-based work academies, where people are trained, offered work placements and guaranteed a job interview for roles in industries with high demand.
