Will my salary before the maternity leave be considered for point based system. Please advise.
Thanks in advance.

It would be great help for you if you go through the policy guidance.

108. This rule allows an applicant to claim previous earnings for 12 months of the most recent 15-month period in which he/she has been working,
not counting the period of maternity or adoption-related absence.
For example: An applicant has been working for four months, takes a period of maternity or adoption-related absence for 12 months, then returns to work for eight months before applying. In these circumstances we would consider the combined periods of four and eight months during which the applicant worked, but would not count the 12 months of maternity or adoption-related absence.
