Once tendered, to the ' higher authority', should one tell ones colleagues, or is that up to the employer?

see no reason not to.

A matter of courtesy, I would say.
I would ask the higher authority if they had any objection. However, any objection they had would have to be reasonable and promptly resolved.
I can think of no reason other than that for you not to say.

Thanks chaps
My resignation was duly accepted ( no option really) and I gave 5 weeks notice, despite having no contract ( which was a no no according to ACAS).
Being a thoroughly decent bloke I shall ask my boss if it is ok to tell my colleagues I am leaving, rather than on my final day.
ps. Thank you nice Mr Cameron for letting me spend my pension how I want. Not having to buy an annuity and blowing it all before I'm 63. If my small pot lasts that long.

What are you thinking of resigning from?
Parliament - I understand the procedure is to apply for the stewardship of the Chiltern Hundreds.
This forum - I think you just drift away, and after about a year someone says, "Where's legacylad gone?", and then we remember that you haven't been around for a while.

The protocol in various jobs where I've been employed is to scrawl a few obscene comments about one's boss on the toilet wall.
That generally let's one's peers know you will be leaving shortly.

Well as one of your jobs involves door to door selling, if i see you coming up my drive you are going to get a shotgun up yer ass.
Banksie you aint.

Depends.
If you want to slip away quietly, don't tell. But if you want a big card filled with 'humorous' good bye message and a voucher for somewhere you never ship, get telling them.
