Q: Wifi will not switch on in iPad settings.

If you are not able to turn Wi-Fi on for your iPad, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article - If Wi-Fi is grayed out or dim on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
In order to update your version of iOS on the iPad you may need to use iTunes on your computer. Update the iOS software on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. See the section titled Update your device using iTunes.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best to you.

Aug 9, 2015 8:52 AMby rickmusikstudios,I have tried all the things that Apple has suggested. Seems like a lot of people are having the same problem since updating their software. Some have reported that overheating an iPhone with a hairdryer then putting it into the freezer for 15 minutes fixes the problem! It seems to me that there is a hardware problem with iPads that were working fine before the update and that I either have to... go for an expensive repair... or throw it on a skip. Does anyone have any alternatives? I note that Apple have gone very quiet on an issue that does not exist.

The most recent link I gave you - https://getsupport.apple.com/GetproductgroupList.action - goes to other help resources and is meant to be used from a different device, not the iPad, such as what ever you are using to post on these forums.
