Upper 2:1 vs First Class (first year) for IB summer internships 2024

How much do degree classifications count for summer internships next year? I got an Upper 2:1 and was very close to a First. For reference, I go to a UK target and the first year accounts for 0% of my actual degree classification (after 3 years).
