    Not necessarily but I would recommend it. From what I know is, if you don't go in last day and are absent on the first day of the new academic year that period is classed as sick leave. I don't know about pay, but I assume your friend would be paid anyway but could implications if they were to get sick in the four year period.

    But she is on unpaid leave leave. Not sick leave. No, as far as I know you don't have to go back for one day to be paid for the summer.

    Don't have to but I probably would, in case there's any grey area. Chances are it'd be a 3 hour thing so not too disruptive.

    Yes, otherwise her unpaid leave continues over the summer until she is back next year. If she returns to work before the summer then she is back at work, maternity leave is over (unpaid or otherwise) and she claims her working wage as usual over the summer months.
