The nature of your difficulty is unclear. You may need to provide more information as to where and when you see this prompt - including the specific App or Apps that you are using. Consider posting a screenshot to illustrate exactly what you see - as this may help contributors better understand precisely what you are seeing:
Take a screenshot on iPad - Apple Support
You can post a screenshot (redacted if necessary, using markup tools, to obscure any personal or sensitive information) using the image button found at the bottom of the message editing window:
If you have an iPad that has FaceID, here are some possible settings that you may need to investigate.
Attention Awareness
Settings > Accessibility > [Physical & Motor] FaceID & Attention > Attention-Aware Features - set to OFF
When set to ON - the iPad will sense your attention through detecting the proximity of your face to the iPad. Attention Awareness, if enabled, also prevents the iPad screen from automatically dimming, or locking the display - while you are actively looking directly at the screen.
Eye or Head Tracking
You may have unintentionally enabled Eye or Head Tracking features. These are also enabled/disabled from Accessibility settings:
Settings > Accessibility > [Physical & Motor] >
Screen Distance
Another possible feature that may be responsible is Screen Distance - this being a feature that is intended to avoid eyestrain when you remain too close to the iPad screen for an extended period:
Settings > Screen Time > [Limit Usage] Screen Distance

I cannot delete the bring your face closer and the black square in the bottom right hand d corner and a moving dot which keeps interrupting the programme
