The chart show how a UK school spent on different running costs in three seperate years : 1981, 1991 and 2001.
In all three years, the greatest expenditure was on salaries. But while other workers salaries saw a fall from from 28% in 1981 to only 15% of spending in 2001, teachers' pay remained the biggest cost, reaching 50% of total of spending in 1991 and ending at 45% in 2001.
Expenditure on reaources as books had increased to 20% by 1991 before decreasing to only 9% by the end of the period. In contrast, the cost of furniture and equipment saw an opposite trend. This cost decreased to only 5% of total expenditure in 1991 but rose dramatically in 2001 when it represented 23% of the school budget. Similarly, the cost of insurance saw a rising trend, growing from only 2% to 8%.
Overall, teachers' salaries consituted the largest cost to the school, and while spending increased dramatically for equpment and insurance, there were corresping drops in expenditure on things as books and on otherk workers' salaries.
