long term sick employee - our legal position

Hi we are a small registered charity, parent run pre-school and we need some advice if anybody has any please!
We have an employee on long term sick leave since July 2013 and has just dropped off another sick note to me tonite up to end of march 2014 along with a letter that states she intends to come back to work as and when her illness allows her to, this is in response to a letter I sent her in December stating that her ssp runs out on 17/1/14 and that I needed to know whether she intends to return to work or not and if she does then we would need her to fill in a form giving us the right to speak to her doctor about her fitness to return.
The thing is I can see her turning up with yet another sick note after the one in March and I would like to know what our legal position is here, how long do we have to keep accepting sick notes and keeping her job open as we are a small pre-school with only 8 staff in total, there are no other jobs she can do so she would have to return to the same position.
Does anyone have any advice please for what we should or could be doing, any help gratefully received. thanks!
