On the generation 10 Ipad there does not seem to be a place to plug in a headset. Is that correct?

You can use wireless headphones, USB-C headphones, or a USB-C to 3.5mm adapter to use other headphones with iPad (10th generation).

Yes.

The newer iPad design no longer includes a 3.5mm audio input jack

Refer to bumbleben0’s work arounds.

Newer design iPads and iPhones no longer have a 3.5mm audio input jack.

Sorry.
