In the industrial "factory model" of schooling, a student’s social well-being was often invisible until a crisis occurred. However, the 2026 shift demands a deeper level of Institutional Intelligence, where the emotional and social safety of every learner is a measurable priority. The Social Health Score (SHS) is the ViSE™ dimension designed to map community cohesion and ensure no child is left behind in the digital-first era.

A true Phygital Gurukul is not just about high-speed internet; it is about high-resolution relationships. By tracking social dynamics, schools can transition from being mere "syllabus completers" to becoming Phygital Mentors who cultivate a resonant, supportive ecosystem.

What is the Social Health Score (SHS)?

The SHS is a real-time metric synthesized by the SYMBION™ AI core to monitor the pulse of the student community:

Community Cohesion: Mapping how students interact within specialized zones like the GROW Garden or the Horsemen Lab.
Identifying Isolation: Proactively spotting patterns of social withdrawal or isolation to provide early intervention.
Collective Coherence: Using simulations in the Horsemen Lab to measure how teams collaborate and manage stress together.
Relationship Dynamics: Evaluating the strength of peer-to-peer and student-mentor bonds as part of the Holistic Quotients Index (HQI).
The Role of SEVA & SABHA

To improve SHS, the ViSE™ framework activates the SEVA & SABHA pillar of service:

SABHA (The Assembly): Provides a physical and digital space for democratic discourse, allowing students to voice concerns and lead community initiatives.
SEVA (Social Responsibility): Integrates community service into the curriculum, helping students build empathy and a sense of purpose beyond themselves.
Why SHS Matters for NEP 2020 Compliance

The SQAAF mandate and NEP 2020 place a heavy emphasis on "Inclusive Practices" and "Beneficiary Satisfaction". During a Saarthi 360° Readiness Audit, your school’s ability to track and improve social health is a key factor in achieving a Platinum Band certification. It proves that your institution is not just a building, but a Phygital Node committed to the Conscience and well-being of the New Bharat.

Current educational systems are built on a "factory model" that treats students as raw materials and grades as quality control. ViSE (Vital Indicators for Society Evolution) is the "Soul-Metric" designed to replace the static report card. It functions as the Operating System for the Phygital Gurukul, measuring real-world evolution across eight core dimensions.
