i have been working in the education department for four and a half months now i have decided to leave so i did an interview for another job i got the job woo lol

but since then i have been told by my boss that all i have to do is write a letter then leave as i havent reached my 6month probation/contract time yet then since last week which i had this chat with my boss hes now told me that i need to work till the end of may!! but im ment to have started my new job this monday but due to my kindness ive said i will have to work after next monday

now tonight at work i have been in the office with the head teacher of the school he spoke to me like i was a child!
and said i will have to work till end of may which is like loads notice plus i shall loose my new job!!
what should i do any help would be really helpfull should i just go on sick or not or should i just leave the job im at now
also the head has said basically if i dont work till end of may he will do me a bad refrence!
i dont have anything in writing to say that should give four weeks or anything i dont even have terms and conditions or any copys of my contract!
as its my current job then arent i supposed to like use them as a refrence lawfully?
