The three pie charts show the changes in annual spending by a particular UK school in 1981, 1991 and 2001.
The pie charts give an analysis of the expenditure of a UK based school in the years 1981, 1991 and 2001. From the given data, it can be seen that the school spent most of its annual budget on salaries. It is also seen that some avenues of expenditure such as furniture and equipment showed a fluctuating spending pattern, while spending on insurance showed a steady increase.

While the spending on teachers’ salaries was 40% in 1981, it rose to 50% in 1991. In 2001, teachers’ salaries accounted for 45% of the total expenditure of the school.
