The 14-year-old will play rich student Siobhan Green, who is forced to attend comprehensive Waterloo Road when it merges with her own nearby school, The Sun reports.
A show source said: "In the end she conquers her snobbery and finds herself getting along with the natives."
Whittaker, who plays Sally Webster in ITV1's Coronation Street, added: "I have to stress that she got the part on her own merit. It was nothing to do with me."
Earlier this month, it was confirmed that the sixth series of Waterloo Road would be filmed back-to-back with the fifth.
