When I first got my iPad Air 4th Generation in April, I really liked the feature on my home screen where the time and date were shown above widgets on the left. (see inserted photo). This is no longer on my home screen and it is just the apps I have next to it. How do I get this back? Thanks!
The Today View of iPadOS14 - that includes the Time, Day and Date above the scrollable widgets - is not replicated in iPadOS15.
There are many changes within iPadOS15 - of which one is the loss of the familiar Today view on the first Home Screen.
With iPadOS15, you are now able to freely position widgets on any of the Home Screens - but you have lost the “compact” first Home Screen layout that shows a compressed 4x6 grid of App/Folder icons and Today view in Landscape screen orientation.
Widgets placed on a Home Screen now individually occupy one or more elements of a 4x6 icon grid. Home Screens without Widgets retain the familiar 5x6 icon grid. The slide-over Today View, previously seen in Portrait screen orientation from the first Home Screen, is still present - and is now also seen in Landscape. However, slide-over does not incorporate the Time and Time panel.
The net effect of adding Widgets to the Home Screen(s) results in reduced efficiency in using available screen space on Home Screens. More information about the new Widgets can be found here:

I was likewise disappointed to discover that the Today View is gone in iPadOS 15; much preferred the old layout that you were looking for. Really hoping they bring it back someday!
