For email, simply remove the Mail accounts from the device that you don’t wish your email to be accessible:

Settings > Mail > Accounts > [Your email account] > Delete Account



To prevent SMS/MMS messages being forwarded to your iPad from your iPhone:


On your iPhone

Settings > Messages > Text Message Forwarding - set to OFF


iPhone and iPad

Also ensure that Messages in iCloud is disabled on both your iPhone and iPad:

Settings > [Your Name / AppleID] > Messages - set to OFF


iPad

Settings > Messages > iMessage - set to OFF
