Manchester United Partnership
Partner Schools
Our objectives are to take Manchester United to the heart of the community and develop young people to achieve their potential. No project has gone further to achieving this than our Partner Schools programme. The project bases full time Community Development Officers in targeted areas to help build relationships with the local community.
Waterhead Academy
Our school has partnered with the Manchester United Foundation. The Manchester United Foundation is a charitable organisation that works with us to deliver motivational and inspiring projects to our pupils, with the goal of helping them reach their full potential. You can find out more about the Manchester United Foundation and its work at www.mufoundation.org. To ensure that the safety and welfare of our pupils is properly safeguarded and that the projects are delivered in an efficient manner, we provide Manchester United Foundation with basic information about each pupil taking part. This includes the pupil’s name, date of birth, gender and basic details of any disabilities or medical conditions which may affect their ability to take part in the projects or necessitate special adjustments being made. We may also provide emergency contact details if required. Any information we supply to the Manchester United Foundation is securely held and used only for the purposes of delivering the projects and evaluating their success. All information is processed and safeguarded strictly in accordance with applicable data protection laws. If you require any further information about Manchester United Foundation or require a copy of their privacy policy, please contact privacy@mufoundation.org.
Our partnership
These essential relations are vital to the transition of pupils to high school over the next three years.
The Foundation also delivers the Manchester United School Football Programme to different high school year groups throughout the academic year. The work of the Foundation also extends to the mentoring of individual students with the aims of developing confidence and leadership skills. In addition, there are targets at Waterhead Academy to increase girls’ participation in football through a series of after school clubs.
