The pie charts details the expenses of a school in the United Kingdom over a twenty-year period of 1981, 1991, and 2001.

On the whole, teachers’ salaries accounted over half of the school’s entire spending, while the least being insurance. The trend of other employee salaries’ steadily drops over the years where it no longer account for the school’s second biggest spending over that of teachers’ in 2001.

Between the three year period, teachers’ salaries shows a relatively steady growth between 40-50% of all spending. On the other hand, furniture and equipment showed a massive drop of 1981’s cost to just 5% in 1991. However, the figure rose all the way to 23% in 2001, even more than its original allocation of 15%.

Resource and books show an opposite trend where the expenditure would increase by 5% between 1981 and 1991 but the school decided to cut back on this aspect to slightly below 10% in 2001. Lastly, Insurance remains the smallest expense allocated by the institution though showing a relative improvement in 2001.

Task Response

The report adequately covers the main features of the charts and makes relevant comparisons. It correctly identifies the dominant category (teachers' salaries) and the smallest (insurance), and highlights key trends such as the fluctuation in furniture and equipment spending and the decline in other workers' salaries. However, there are some inaccuracies and omissions: the statement that teachers' salaries accounted for over half of spending is not accurate for all years (it was 40% in 1981 and 45% in 2001), and the claim that other workers' salaries were the second biggest spending in 2001 is incorrect (furniture and equipment was higher). Additionally, the report does not mention the specific percentages for other workers' salaries in 1991 and 2001, and the phrase 'over that of teachers' in 2001' is unclear. To improve, ensure all data points are accurately reported and clarify comparisons. Overall, the response is relevant and well-structured, but these lapses prevent it from achieving a higher band.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a logical structure with an introduction, overview, and body paragraphs, but the flow is sometimes disrupted by awkward phrasing and unclear references. For example, 'the trend of other employee salaries' steadily drops over the years where it no longer account for the school's second biggest spending over that of teachers' in 2001' is confusing. Improve clarity by using clearer topic sentences and ensuring each paragraph focuses on a single main idea. Use cohesive devices more effectively to link ideas within and between sentences.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate for the task, with some good attempts at paraphrasing (e.g., 'expenses', 'allocation', 'expenditure'). However, there are inaccuracies and repetitions, such as 'spending' used multiple times and 'shows a relatively steady growth' which is imprecise. To improve, use a wider range of synonyms and more precise terms (e.g., 'proportion', 'share', 'accounted for', 'witnessed a decline'). Avoid informal phrases like 'cut back on this aspect' and ensure word choices are natural and accurate.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a mix of simple and complex structures, but there are several grammatical errors and awkward phrasings that affect clarity. For example, 'The pie charts details' should be 'The pie charts detail', 'accounted over half' should be 'accounted for over half', and 'the least being insurance' is incomplete. There are also issues with subject-verb agreement and article usage. To improve, proofread carefully and practice using a wider range of sentence structures with accurate grammar and punctuation.
