    Check your contract, i know mine said they could tell me to PFO with no notice at all for the first 13 weeks

    they don't have to give you any notice at all.
    Regards the contract, until you have completed your probationary period the contract is not binding. i.e. they don't actually take up the contract until you are made permanent.

    I suspect this only applies to probationary periods under 3 months.

    6 months I thought...
    Either way if you're being dismissed for gross misconduct or cumulative smaller misdemeanours they don't have to give you any notice either.
