What Calculators are Prohibited for the IGCSEs? -_-

I've got my Co-ordinated science IGCSE tomorrow and I wanted to know if the TI-84 Plus CE is allowed for the exams, when I asked my school they said it was fine, but they're very slack with communication and organisation so I wouldn't put it past them to get it wrong and just assume its allowed when its not. (they've posted the wrong exam days and info on numerous occasions)

I'm not going to add any cheat notes to its memory or anything (I'm so inept at chemistry I wouldn't even bother), I just worry I'm going to get a fickle invigilator who confiscates it or fails me outright for having it.

Its the calculator I'm familiar with, I don't have any others, and I don't want to have to rely on a spare my school might not have available; So if anyone is able to clarify, it would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Is it a graphing calculator? If it is I’m pretty sure you can’t bring it in for any GCSEs unless it’s additional maths
