The Degree Apprenticeship programme in Wales started in 2018 and attached is the number of students by domicile (Welsh or other) on HEFCW/Medr funded degree apprenticeships between 2018/19 to 2023/24. This does not cover any degree apprenticeships in Wales that are not Medr funded and any Welsh domicile students on degree apprenticeships in institutions across the border.
