Sillychuckie,

It sounds like you will be an employee with a fixed length contract. Not teh same as a contractor.

You will be entitled to paid holidays under the Working Time Directive and the company will be obliged to supply a Stakeholder pension (which means they have to supply and run one, but not necessarily pay any money into it, tho most do)

I am on a dayrate contract, meaning I only get paid for the days I work. But I am still an employee.
