I have an ipad 8th generation that I got for school back in 2020/2021. It’s still in perfect condition and works very well but wanted to look into upgrading it to a bigger one potentially. Just unsure of how upgrades and trade ins work! Am I even able to upgrade it after it’s been so long?
Thank you!

Apple does have a trade-in scheme. You can check eligibility - and obtain an estimated trade-in value - here:
The available trade-in value that you see listed in the online trade-in calculator is the maximum estimated value - and assumes that the iPad is undamaged and fully working. The actual value is only finalised when the qualifying device has been inspected and accepted.
Be aware that online and in-store trade-in values can differ - however, many find that completing a trade-in using the in-store process removes any doubt as to the value offered; the transaction is finalised without the risk of shipments going astray, or disagreement as to the condition of the device when it was sent to Apple’s trade-in partner.
