This depends on what is in your contract of employment. Sometimes contracts have an express term providing for full pay for a specified period, followed by reduced pay for a further period, subject to conditions on reporting the sickness absence.
If the contract does not contain any such provision the courts could, in some circumstances, imply a term giving a contractual right to sick pay. In other words, by virtue of custom and practice (e.g. because all of your colleagues have always received a certain level of pay) you may have a contractually-enforceable entitlement to paid sick leave.
Otherwise your employer is required to pay sick pay under a scheme no less generous than the statutory scheme. This is called 'statutory sick pay' (SSP) and is payable, subject to qualifying conditions under the national insurance contributions scheme, for up to 28 weeks.
