If you turn it off in Settings>WiFi, it will not turn back on by itself. If you turn it off in control center, it will turn back on at 5:00 AM or when your location changes.
Turn it off in Settings.
Note that if you re-boot the phone, regardless of how you turned it off, it will turn back on.

If you want your WiFi to stay turned off until you turn it back on, go to Settings>WiFi and set it to "Off". Or tell Siri, "turn WiFi off". However, there's generally no good reason to turn WiFi off. Leaving it on doesn't use much battery and improves the accuracy of your GPS.
Use Bluetooth and Wi-Fi in Control Center with iOS 11 - Apple Support
Thanks for your help. What i mean is i want to find a way which would stop it turning on when it wants too.
I like to be in control when my wifi is on.
Is there not a setting that can change this preference
When i mean turn off i know how to turn my wifi on and off from control centre to using settings too.
However if i turn it off now in a hours time it will tirn itself on and when i wake up every morning it is on when before i go bed i turn it off via settings i want to be able to only turn on and off when i want
I have only the option to turn it off i dont have a option to stop coming on without me wanting it to come on.
It drains your battery when your phone constantly tries to connect to wifi connections so im told.
Also whilst in bed i dont need it on so i turn it off at night but wake up to it been on.
Turning it off in control center is temporary. If you want it off permanently, then turn it off in settings.
It does NOT drain the battery when not in use.
As KiltedTim indicated: Settings>Wifi>turn it off there.
Cheers,

Thanks so much will do this now
