Sentencing: Aims Video 1 of 4

In this video, we dive into the key aims of sentencing as outlined in Section 142 of the Criminal Justice Act 2003. Whether you're preparing for your OCR law exams or just want to understand the UK legal system better, this video breaks down the five main objectives that courts must consider when sentencing an offender:

1. **Punishment of Offenders**
2. **Reduction of Crime** (including deterrence)
3. **Reform and Rehabilitation of Offenders**
4. **Protection of the Public**
5. **Making Reparation by Offenders**

We also provide real-world examples to help you understand how these aims are applied in practice.

**Why is this important for your exams?**
In OCR exams, it’s crucial to reference the correct Act of Parliament. Remember, you must use the exact wording from the Act, like saying 'reduction of crime' instead of just 'deterrence,' to avoid losing marks. This ensures you're referring to the current legislation and not outdated laws.
