It's because it's the only paper that doesn't have your exam number on it and in the past students were swaping their exam papers around with notes on them. So technically, you could get in trouble for writing on them. Examiners also look for papers that have bits torn off the end - it's obvious that notes are passed this way.

The only thing he does is say, at the the start of every exam, "Phones are off I presume. Anybody who wishes may put them outside in bags...". On the very first day when they set the ground rules kinda thing, he said bottles of drinks were fine but "no one really likes the sound of a packet of crisps crackling away in an otherwise quiet room, so none of that please" And I clicked in hoping for a fun story too, btw
