Software update
I have an older iPad that is far as it is updating it's only the 10.3 and says it's up-to-date. There's no prompt to update the software. Is there anyway I can update this iPad to a version higher than 13.2

Nope.
This will never be possible.
If your iPad model has been stuck on iOS 10 for all of these past years, then you own an over 8-year old, 2012 iPad 4th generation.
That iPad model cannot ever upgrade beyond iOS 10.3.3/10.3.4.
Your over 8-year old, iPad 4th gen model is too old, now.
Apple ended support for 8-10 year old iPads, at least, over 3 years, ago.
The internal hardware in that iPad is too old, too underpowred and completely incompatible with all later versions of iOS/iPadOS.
Virtually, all third party iOS app developers ended/stopped/abandoned supporting these old iPads over two years, ago.
There are virtually, NO MORE older iOS 9 or 10 compatible apps available from the Apple iOS App Store, any longer.
Simply put, your 4th gen iPad is too old and obsolete now.
Sorry.
If you need/want an iPad with an up to date iPadOS with access to current, updated apps, then you really need to seriously consider a new iPad model OR a much “newer” , used iPad model capable of running the latest iPadOS versions.
There are plenty of newer, older iPad models that can run the latest, current versions of iPadOS.
Sorry & Best of Luck to You!
