Schofield was born in Oldham, Greater Manchester. He grew up in Newquay, Cornwall, where he attended Trenance Infant School and Newquay Tretherras School. When he was 15, his first foray into media was a Sunday show on Hospital Radio Plymouth. After many years of writing letters to the BBC, at 17, Schofield took up the position of bookings clerk for BBC Radio at Broadcasting House in London, where he was, at the time, the youngest employee.
Aged 19, Schofield moved with his family to New Zealand, where he made his television début as the initial presenter of the youth music programme Shazam! on 23 February 1982. He also spent two years working for the Auckland-based station Radio Hauraki.
