here are a couple things you can look at and a couple things you can do... hopefully one of them works.

go to settings/connections /Wi-Fi/3 dots top right corner/advanced... make sure switch to turn Wi-Fi on in familiar locations is set to off.

While there, scroll down to the very bottom and look at Wi-Fi control history to see which app or apps is turning your Wi-Fi on if any.

if all your switches were set properly and your Wi-Fi is still coming on when it should not be you can go to:

settings /general management/reset/reset all settings... choose that selection and confirm choice.

One of the above things should work for you...
