The pie charts illustrate the percentage of total school spending allocated to five

categories, namely teachers' salaries, other workers' salaries, resources, furniture


and equipment, and insurance, in three specific years.
In general, it is obvious that teachers’ salaries consistently accounted for the
largest portion of school spending across all three years, while insurance made
up the smallest share. Spending on resources and furniture and equipment
fluctuated, showing opposite trends over the period.
Teacher’s salaries took the lead in school expenditures, rising from 40% in 1981
to a peak of 50% in 1991 before declining slightly to 45% in 2001. Spending on
other workers’ salaries, on the other hand, dropped steadily from 28% in 1981 to
22% in 1991 and further down to 15% in 2001. Meanwhile, the budget for
insurance increased gradually, starting at 2% in 1981, and by 2001 it had
increased 4 times compared to 1981.
The percentage of expenditure on resources rose from 15% in 1981 to 20% in
1991 before dropping sharply to only 9% in 2001. In contrast, furniture and
equipment experienced a significant decline, from 15% in 1981 to 5% in 1991,
before climbing dramatically to 23% by 2001.
