The centre, built at a cost of £160,000 but with steel sections donated by the local Corus steelworks, will cater for 200 children a week and target their literacy and computing skills.
A Corus spokesman said: "Working in partnership with other companies and education in this way shows our responsibility as a large employer in suppoorting the local community.
"It is also giving Scunthorpe United Football Club the opportunity to build its client base through education.
"Through these links the kids of today will become the supporters of the future, putting something back into the community."
A ten-week pilot scheme launched in May saw the reading age of 125 improve by over a year.
