Teachers' pay remained around 40% to 50% while other workers' salaries instead steady fell from 28% to 15% by the end of the period. In contrast, the cost of furniture and equipment saw an opposite trend. The cost dropped from 15% in 1981 to 5% in 1991, but surge sharply in 2001 when it represented 23% of the school budget.

Could you explain to me what the mainly criteria of examiner will assess my essay? because if i compare with someone who has higher score than me i assume that the main reason why i just got band around 5-5.5 because of grammatical errors
and how accurate this assessment it is when i compare with the real test?

The IELTS examiners will assess essays in following four criteria:

Task Achievement.
Lexical Resource.
Grammatical Range and Accuracy.
Coherence and Cohesion.

currently your main problem is: Grammatical Range and Accuracy.
