File / Page Setup / Layout tab window, under Headers
and Footers, check Different first page.

Word gives you, in each section, the choice to have up to three
different headers: 1 for all even pages, 1 for all odd pages, and one
for the very first page.
In your case, there are 2 obvious solutions and 1 less obvious I guess:
1) you make 2 sections, the 1st one 1 page only, the 2nd as many as you
like and set »Different First Page« there.
2) again 2 sections, the first containing 2 pages, the 2nd as many as
you like. That way, all you have to set is in the headers & footers of
the second section not to link back to section 1.
3) you can do it with one section only (this is best approach for, say,
a document template for a letter where you don't want to have more than
one page at first): Since I'm not good with ORs in IF fields, I'd set my
section on »Different First Page« again and then put an IF-Field in the
Header (in page 2):
{ IF { PAGE }=2 "" "whatever you want to have in your header from page 3
onward" }
Good luck!

tx Suzanne, learnt something again (didn't know you could leave the
ELSE-"" away, though it should be obvious from programming languages :-)
