    There is a bit of a glitch going on with iOS 9.3, especially with older devices. If you have a computer you can try to restore your iPad to factory settings using iTunes, then get the data back up to the point of your most recent backup

    It works for some, but not everyone. The issue does seem to be on Apple's end since there are so many people experiencing it. You may simply have to wait for Apple to fix things.
