You are not covered by Unfair Dismissal Act while on probation.
If you want to be professional about it and maintain the good relations you already have, I would be inclined to tell them.
I think deep down you know this, that is why you are asking. We all know the legal situation blah blah balh..... but there are other considerations.
They will think a lot more of you for your honesty and you will likely be retained on contract and still get the job when you are finished maternity.
So it's a win win .
All this is true and correct.
For a good company, it should not matter. Maternity leave is only a small part of working life and they would not dream of withdrawing the offer.
On the other hand, there may suddenly be some 'restructuring' and the role may vanish. It happens. In which case, it is a win-lose rather than a win-win.
