Hello,

Does your iPad have any restrictions set or any configuration profiles installed?

Settings > General > Profiles

If you do not see a Profiles pane in Settings then your device does not have any profiles installed.

Settings > Screen Time > Restrictions

Do you also use Family Sharing?

Did you double check Screen Time to make sure that you didn’t disable deleting of apps?

No profiles installed. No family sharing, I had family sharing set up but took it off. I was able to delete when family sharing was on
