Zero hour contract and time off....

Does any one work or have experience of working on an zero hour contract??? Within our setting all our staff are on a zero hour contract except for possibly the manager and deputy although I'm not 100% sure. The thing is when i first started I was just to do a few hours here and there and mainly cover. But as the pre school got busier I was asked to do a few more until the end of term, then a few more and before I knew it I was working full time even though I never really wanted to do it permanently. We don't get sick pay and every September our working days are uncertain. I've tried asking to reduce my hours but they never do as I find working full time too much but I feel like I've been gradually tricked into it by being led to think it was only temporary. The thing is there are times where I would like time off for personal things such as school meetings or appointments things that are difficult to arrange outside working hours however the management are being really funny about it and are not saying they will allow it even with months notice. I understand their side of things but surely if they employ on zero hour contracts the flexibility needs to be a 2 way thing. I'm just getting so annoyed with company as it all seems to play in their favour. At the minute we have no cleaner and are being told we need to stay behind until everything is clean and tidy meaning hoovering and mopping etc. I've been leaving work 15/ 20 minutes late every day. I'm at a point where I want to hand my notice in but a couple of other staff have left and I'd really be dumping them in it so close to the end of summer term. I love my job, the kids but company and the treatment of their staff is awful .
