There are different levels of National Minimum Wage, depending on the age of the worker.
adults (aged 22 and over) receive the full rate of £5.35 an hour
a ‘development rate’ of £4.45 an hour is paid to workers aged 18 to 21 inclusive.
young people (those older than school leaving age and younger than 18, you're under school leaving age until the end of summer term of the school year in which you turn 16) receive £3.30 an hour
Apprentices under the age of 19 are not entitled to the National Minimum Wage. Apprentices who are 19 or over and in the first 12 months of their apprenticeship are not entitled to the National Minimum Wage.
