Return to work

I've name changed for this just in case!
I'm after some advice re returning to work and what my rights may be! I'm pretty sure I know where I stand but also not sure if I am in the wrong!
Brief outline:
I was working full time
Has my first baby and returned to work three days a week in the same/very similar role.
Am now on maternity leave with second child
My boss has just implied that I will have to return to work full time as he has rights too and he doesn't have to give me a job unless I go back full time.
Surely this isn't right?if I could do the job part time before maternity leave I can go back part time?surely? And surely they have to at least give me a job back?
I'm not due back for a month or two but now quite worried!
Tia

Hi thanks for the reply, this role was covered by someone full time and there are about 4 others in the office doing the same role still, full time though
