Can I update my 10.3.3 to iOS 14
iPad, iOS 10
Nope.
Upgrading/updating that iPad any farther will never, ever be possible.
If your iPad model has been stuck on iOS 10 for all of these past years, then you own an 8-1/2-year old, 2012 iPad 4th generation.
That iPad model cannot ever upgrade beyond iOS 10.3.3/10.3.4.
Your 8-1/2-year old, iPad 4th gen model is too old, now.
Sorry.
Apple ended support for all 8-10-year old iOS devices well over 4 years, ago, in 2016.
Third party app developers abandoned and stopped supporting these 8-10-year old iOS devices nearly 3 years, ago, in 2018.
There are, virtually, NO MORE third party apps available from the iOS App Store, any longer!
Third party compatible apps for such old devices are few and far between, now, in 2021.
AND, that well over 4-year old default iOS Safari Web browser is too old, not secure and not safe to use to access the Internet, any longer.
There are virtually NO MORE third party Web browsers left for 8-10 year old iPads!
Available and more popular third party Web browser choices are pretty much GONE, now.
If you must use these old iPad models, here is what is left for still updated Web browsers.
Pickins’ are slim, now!
ALook Web browser ( A fairly new Web browser primarily designed for old iOS device versions, but is still available to newer iOS/iPadOS devices, as well )
Dolphin Web browser
Maxthon Web browser
TOR private browser
TOR + VPN private browser
Turbo VPN private browser
This is pretty much it for iOS 9/10 compatible, third party Web browsers today.
Simply put, a 4th gen iPad is too old and obsolete now.
Sorry, but this is the reality for ALL 8-10-year old AND OLDER iOS devices now. Especially going into 2021!
It's 2021 now!
You really need to seriously consider a purchase of a new iPad model OR a much, MUCH “newer” and less expensive, refurbished or used iPad models, from better known, trusted Apple product/device retailers/resellers, locally or online, on the Web/Internet, capable of running the latest iPadOS versions.
There are PLENTY of newer, older iPad models that can run the latest, current versions of iPadOS.
I am sorry that you had to learn all of this, but this does not change any of the facts regarding these very old iOS devices.
Sorry & Best of Luck to You!

If your iPad model is running 10.3.3 it may be too old to run any newer version of iPadOS. To run iPadOS 14, you would need a 5th generation iPad. (Or an iPad Air 2 or iPad mini 4.)
If you're using an iPad 4, first generation iPad Air, or a third generation or earlier iPad Mini, no. Otherwise, follow the instructions in the Related Article above.
