Sorry for late reply, I assume you've worked for at least 80 days since the date of joining. You are entitled for your full salary. They can hold your salary for some time but you'll be paid in full ultimately.
Every govt dept/admin head has his/her own interpretation. But you'll get your salary.
Most likely your probation should be increased to compensate for maternity leave.
Come back in case of any problems.

If you are on probation period during your maternity leave then you won't get salary for that period as you are never paid during your probation period. You will be paid during the month you join your school back.
