Apple’s offers, where available, are only accessible at the time of purchase; offers cannot be claimed retrospectively.
If you purchase a device directly from Apple, you have 14-days within which to unconditionally return the device for refund. In some circumstances, you can use this facility to return for refund - and then make a fresh purchase to access a known offer. Beyond 14-days, this option isn’t available to you.

Are the following true:
1] you just purchased the iPad directly from Apple and are within the return
window for your location, and
2] AirPods offer was in effect for your location at time of purchase, and
3] you qualify for educational discount.
Not all locations offer the educational bonus and not all at the same time.
If you meet the above 3 requirements, contact either the Apple store where
you made the purchase or Apple (for your location) directly for assistance.
