The British term that was always used during my education was 'an invigilator'.

He is the highest authority in the protocol order of entire examination process. An invigilator is the person who is only responsib

Hi again, Sri,
I see.
I appreciate your politeness in greeting me as 'respected Clive', but I would like to invite you to call me simply 'Clive'. I hope this is acceptable to you.

Hi, Clive and Sri.
Thank for the exellent answers.
Clive, you studied in Britain.. wa... then you'd have in-depth of both British En and AmE(Can) English.
So the term invigilate(tor) is used in Britain.
And even though there are terms squad and flying/sitting squad, they sound odd to you.

Hi,
I only encountered the word 'invigilator' at University in Britain, not in secondary school. I don't know what they say in Canada or the USA.

Respected Clive,
Thanks for your message. It is difficult for me to address you as Clive. You have asked something which is difficult for me to put it in practice. However, please suggest a courtesy title before your name so that I can follow the same in future.

The person who monitors the examination (makes sure no one is cheating, etc.) in the US is indeed commonly called a proctor. It's also a verb. I've agreed to proctor the make-up exam for Dr. Phillips, since half his class had the flu during the regular exam and he's going to a conference on the make-up date.
