    Holidays are worked out on a pro rata basis, you will have worked nine months of your year if you leave at the end of July so will be entitled to take three quarters of your contracted annual holiday leave, three weeks.

    I agree with the above (pro rata etc). You may be allowed to take part of the two weeks as unpaid leave if you have to take them.

    OP you are entitled to a minimum 15 days holidays up to the end of July assuming you work full time and have accrued the necessary working hours. You are not necessarily entitled to take the two particular weeks you want in April as holiday leave, you are entitled to request these days off but the your employer is not required to agree to those particular days nor that length of continuous time off. You need to discuss this asap with your employer.
