Curfews for young teens

We live in a (safe) London suburb, and DD1 is 14 and is at a local state school.

We are discussing curfews. Just to be clear - she’d be at a friends house - either watching a film in a group or at a house party (also at someone from schools house) or I suppose at her boyfriends house).

Coming home would be by a parent rota - even if we was very local (I suppose for 5 mins walk away we’d we ok her walking home as part of a group).

We have said she has to be back at midnight at weekends. She says our curfew is unreasonable and I am weird because I want her in (and to lock up / put alarm on) before I go to bed and frankly midnight is late enough.

Is midnight a fair curfew st weekends?

I feel like the big bad wolf reading all these comments, my nearly 15 yrs will have to be collected at 10pm if is a party and she has to be in by 6pm in the winter and 8pm in the summer if just hanging around with her friends , bedtime is 10:30 during school and 11:30 weekend and holidays and no tech in her bedroom at anytime.
