Microsoft Teams - iPad app
I too am a secondary school Maths teacher!
We have used OneNote for a few years but have started using Teams since lockdown, so we are all on a steep learning curve!
We had the same problem and our IT Dept came up with something that worked.
On a PC (or I used Citrix to remote into my school PC desktop as I am iPad only at home) go to the online version of Teams and go to the Team you are trying to use.
Click on Files and after a minute or two a “Class Materials” folder should be created here (this is as feature of Class Teams and is where you can store files that you want to be read-only to students - like the Content Library in OneNote).
Then when you go to the iPad app everything should work properly.
It worked for me, as they say!
This should mean you don’t need to use PC and iPad together to create and run meetings.
I too am a big GoodNotes fan. a lovely app.
Hope this helps.

angela_salesian to only use my iPad Pro 2020 for Teams meetings I do the following:
1. Schedule all Teams meetings using the Outlook calendar app on my iPad (it has an option to make it a Teams meeting)
2. Use the Teams app on my iPad to join the meeting (includes Video/Audio)
Note:
1. The Teams app only allows the option to 'Blur Background'
2. There is an option to Share Screen https://youtu.be/Wk-P5ZJa0f4
3. The web version of Teams using Safari on my iPad Pro does not allow Video
Hope this helps
