Word should not try to be intelligent with regards to text format.

[Dewi Felstead]

Word appears to assume what you want to do when formatting text. I am having
real problems when using Word to generate contents pages, using Heading
styles to identify what should be picked up.

The last line of some pages (prior to a page break) appears to take on the
format of the following page's header. If formatting is cleared, the
following page header is also cleared.

When you insert a manual page break, it takes on the style of the following
paragraph. If you instead apply the "Page break before" property to the
heading, you will not have this problem.
