The Government regularly publishes information on graduate employment trends through its ‘Graduate Labour Market Statistics’ publication, which can be found on the gov.uk website; https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/graduate-labour-market-quarterly-statistics.

According to the most recent publication, in 2016 the median salary for graduates was £32,000. This compares to a median salary of £22,500 for non-graduates.
