Generally it's not a good idea to have section breaks at the end of each
page--this is one of the reasons why--all it takes is one fatter character
for Word to decide the page will no longer break at the same place where you
put the section break. This page explains a little more of the principle,
if not your exact situation.

And the reason you give for having section breaks at the end of every page
doesn't make any sense at all, as without section breaks, the headers and
footers will stay the same.

I'll work on a Document with different Headers and footers put in section
breaks at the end of each page (so my headers and footers don't change) and
save it, then go open it and the section breaks are in the wrong places or
there is added returns at certain places. So I have to do it all over again
and the same thing happens. Not on all documents but many of them.
