fyi these kinds of pen cases have been popular in asia and asian communities worldwide for decades, usually for carrying mechanical pencils and their accessories (extra lead, erasers, protractors, rulers, mini notebooks, sticky pads, whatever)
western equivalent would be trapper keepers with their pencil pouches.

Usually a stencil for lettering and a leaflet with geometry definitions. Available from supermarkets, stationers and cash and carrys right now because it is GCSE Maths exam time.
