Default How to fill available space above footnote

I am helping my wife with her dissertation using Word 2013.

The text and the footnotes are justified on both sides.

On many/most pages, Word fills up the available space with text, above the start of the footnotes on that page, just fine (1st image).

On some pages, Word leaves a lot of white space above the footnote (2nd image) despite the fact that two lines of text at the top of the next page (to the end of the paragraph [3rd image]) would fit just fine in the blank space on the previous page.

At the moment, I cannot find a way to get any lines from the next page to fill up that available space.

What is causing this and is there a way that I can correct it?

Thank you.
