The certificate was set in 11.5pt, which reads small for a document that is printed and handed over. Body, header and signature move to 13.5pt and the heading to 15pt, with the line spacing raised alongside so the extra size does not close the gap between lines -- body leading goes from 18 to 22, roughly 1.6 times the type size. Checked against the longest father's name in the data, with and without the internship note: the certificate still fits on one page.

The line spacing is raised alongside the type rather than left alone, so the larger size does not close up the gap between lines — body leading lands at roughly 1.6 times the font size. Page margins are unchanged.
Checked the case most likely to overflow: the longest father's name in the data (41 characters) together with the Internship purpose, which adds the extra note paragraph. Both render on a single page, as does the ordinary case.
