It is advisable to wait for your BRP, it only takes a few days. You might have difficulty re-entering if your previous visa has been stamped 'superceded' and you cannot produce the new new ILR BRP. Also, if you read the letter you got at PEO, I am pretty sure it does NOT say 'Your application for ILR has been approved'......mine certainly did not say it.

New BRP card should be delivered to you very soon.Then you could leave UK. Take relevant documents you took to your PEO appointment. One of MY friend was stopped by Immigration at Heathrow when he returned, and has to explain as to how he got his ILR.Because he left UK as soon as he got his ILR.
