The apprenticeship levy will come into effect in April 2017. By 2019-20, as set out in the OBR forecast, total UK spending is expected to exceed what we currently forecast to raise through the levy. Spending on apprenticeships in England will be £2.45 billion, and the Devolved Administrations will receive £460 million.
