Perform a forced-restart of your iPad - as so doing will often clear an isolated software issue:
Connect your iPad to its Power Adapter and allow the iPad to charge, undisturbed, for at least an hour. While still connected to external power, try a forced-restart:
- On an iPad with a Home button: Press and hold the top button and the Home button at the same time. When the Apple logo appears, release both buttons.
- On other iPad models: Press and quickly release the volume up button, press and quickly release the volume down button, then press and hold the top button. When the Apple logo appears, release the button.
If you remain unable to locate the Settings icon, perhaps you have unintentionally moved it into an App folder? Using the Search function, try to locate Settings…
Swipe-down on any empty area of Home Screen to expose the Search dialogue - and type “Settings”.
