iCloud.com not syncing with iOS devices.

I have noticed that whenever I create a calendar entry or contact on iCloud using the web, the entries will appear on my iPad within a few moments. However, the same is not true whenever I make entries on my iPad. I have verified that I am correctly signed in to iCloud on my iPad AND that all additional settings are correct.

It appears as a real issue and not an oversight on my part. Can anyone provide assitance or shed some light on the issue?

Thank you.
