How can I get emoji on my iPad

I found seen this question raised before and have followed the instructions but still cannot access emoji on my iPad. I have an 8th generation iPad with Software Version 14.7.1

the emoji keyboard shows in my keyboards but without the >. I have deleted the emoji keyboard and restarted all settings, however, when I re add the emoji keyboard it still doesn’t have the > and is not active.

I would appreciate your assistance

iPad, iOS 10
