You cannot reset it. You will need to restore the iPhone to factory and set it up as new. You cannot use the backup, as it contains the forgotten passcode. See this, Use Screen Time on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

The restore method is here, If you forgot the passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support
