What is a B-Tech Starred Distinction?

Hey, so I am currently studying a level 3 b-tech national diploma and on track to achieve triple distinction in my given subject (Architecture and Advanced construction) but was wondering how to achieve a starred distinction as it can be equivalent to A* for UCAS points. In other places (from around 8 years ago) there are people stating that starred distinction are not a thing so it got me very confused.

Please, if you can help it would be much appreciated :smile:
