Hide/lock VPN toggle

I have put accountability software on my son’s iPad but it is dependent on VPN. Is there a way to lock or hide the VPN toggle through ScreenTime?

The article on using parental controls is not helpful.

Yes! The ability to prevent VPN changes in screen time would be a huge help!!

I saw in a different thread that those management tools can be easily removed.

VPNs are how most accountability / parental control software packages work. This is a critically important feature to be able to lock down.

Unless the iPad is centrally managed by a Business/Enterprise or Educational establishment - and a management profile is installed on the iPad - it is not possible to hide the VPN configuration options or enforce the use of a specific VPN connection.
