Melissa McBride is a visionary learning architect and founder of Sophia Technologies and Sophia High School. With eighteen years of leadership across Canada, London, and the Middle East, she champions the "Power of '&'" – creating fluid learning experiences that seamlessly blend digital and physical worlds. Melissa pioneered the UK's first DfE-accredited online school when critics said it couldn't be done. As an advocate for hybrid education, she builds bridges rather than choosing sides, recognising that modern families need flexible, high-quality learning solutions.
