Part time role, but maternity cover is full time....

I am working part time and am 20 weeks pregnant. The job has always been part time but very much with a full time workload. In discussing my maternity cover recruitment, my boss is adamant at she wants to recruit a full time maternity cover based in the office, which was a complete shock. I currently work one day a week in the office and the rest at home which is reflected in my contract. Am just a bit concerned that after maternity leave, it will be difficult for me to go back to my part time role working mainly from home, as a precedent will have been set possibly to say full time works better for the organisation and that I would have to work full time. Can they do this?
