This sounds like a number of issues.

The pads need to seal and open well If each joint does not hold suction well, this is where you should start. Other problems could occur if the pads are not opening enough.

Flat high notes could be caused by the chamber on your mouthpiece being too big, or too long a barrel. Try putting some putty inside your mouthpiece to reduce the volume and see what this does to the high notes. This is easy to do and removable.

If the 12ths are wide, then your speaker vent may be in the wrong place. An <un-nameed player> moved the speaker vent on his <pro-line> C clarinet down 10mm (!!!) to mostly fix this problem. The middle-C /G 12th should be closest to in-tune.

Do you know when this instrument was made?
