Option 1: "They must provide lesson plans"

Explanation: The text states that parents must show lesson plans to the local education authority (LEA) to demonstrate that the teaching provided is satisfactory. This requirement is directly mentioned, making it a clear condition that must be met.

Option 2: "They must ensure their child plays a sport"

Explanation: While the text mentions that children must have adequate opportunities for physical education, it does not specify that they must play a sport. This option misinterprets the requirement, making it incorrect.

Option 3: "They must provide regular assessments"

Explanation: The text indicates that there is no formal assessment required for home-educated children. Instead, the LEA inspects the teaching methods and learning progress, which does not equate to regular assessments. Therefore, this option is incorrect.

Option 4: "They must provide book lists"

Explanation: The text explicitly states that parents must provide book lists to the LEA as part of demonstrating satisfactory education. This is a clear requirement, confirming that this option is correct.

Option 5: "They must keep a record of attendance"

Explanation: The text does not mention that parents must keep a record of attendance. Instead, it discusses the LEA's role in inspecting educational practices rather than tracking attendance, making this option incorrect.
