    It should be clearly stated in the contract of employment. 

    And it depends on how long you've worked there. 

    There's some information from acas in the following link -

    And you can always ask HR at Marks and Spencer.

    Provided you have worked there for at least a month, the statutory notice you need to give is one week.  That never increases.  However your written particulars of employment issued by M&S (your written contract) may include a longer period.  If you cannot find that, ask HR for a copy.

    Someone could... your manager or HR. It'd be dangerous to take advice from a random person off the internet as even if they are honestly telling you whats in their contract doesnt mean that your contract is the same.  In my team (not M&S) our notice period ranges from 1 week to 3 months... a few years ago it would have been 1 week to 12 months but that chap left (PILON in case you are wondering)
