There is an option in Screen Time to prevent deleting apps. Go to Settings > Screen Time >Content & Privacy Restrictions > iTunes & App Store Purchases > Deleting Apps and see it that is set to "Allow."


Also, some built-in apps cannot be deleted. See: Delete built-in Apple apps from your iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch - Apple Support
