iPad help

I'm looking at buying an iPad for home learning. My son has sen and I thought an iPad might help him engage in his learning and be a more interactive experience. I'm going round in circles, I start looking at the basic iPad for £329, then wondering if it's worth spending the extra £100 for 128gb storage. Then wondering if I do that then I might as well upgrade to the air. Adding on the Apple Pencil the whole cost then becomes £700 and I go back to start. Can anyone help? Will 32gb be enough, or is it worth upgrading?

You don't need a huge amount of storage unless you are having lots of space hungry apps. We have a speech app and lots of other suitable apps with 32g

12ds has the basic iPad, just a cheap pen not Apple Pencil and that's it. Thinking of adding a wireless keyboard but it does everything he needs it to.

@confusednortherner Thank you! I thought you could only use the apple pen, that's good to know.
