I forgot screen time passcode and so unable to reset my iPhone

I’ve recently bought a new phone and am trying to reset and erase my old phone to sell it. However I do not know my screen time passcode and Connor do so without it. I have no way of recovering it as my deceased father set it up. I also have no option in my setting to change the code or anything about the passcode at all. What can I do? Should I take it to a shop?
