It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.

2) British Columbia Ministry of Education – BC Offshore Program: The High School Program is run in cooperation with the Canadian Ministry of Education of British Columbia, and students receive dual diplomas from the New Taipei City Education Bureau and the BC Ministry of Education. This reflects formal collaboration with BC's education authority.
3) National Taiwan Normal University (NTNU) collaboration: The Middle School program is jointly developed with NTNU, with NTNU professors contributing to curriculum development under the Jenaplan framework.
4) College Board (US) Registered School: The site notes the school is a College Board (US) Registered School, indicating alignment with College Board programs and recognition.
5) Unique status as BC Offshore Program provider in Taiwan: The Welcome Message identifies TCS as the only provider of the British Columbia Offshore Program in Taiwan, highlighting a distinctive accreditation-like status within the country.
2) Awards: The school's site does not publish a dedicated list of school-wide awards for the past five years. Public-facing sections such as News & Press focus on events, partnerships, and community activities rather than awarded recognitions. For example, the News & Press pages highlight coverage of events (e.g., Shoebox charity drive, Terry Fox Run) rather than awards.
