The teacher hasn't told me and my son only told me on the way home on Friday. I can't sleep for being so upset. I am shaking at the thought of having to go in and speak to the teacher. It is a mutual dislike thing between us. DH is worried it will appear our son is a Mummy's boy who can't fight his own battles but he was bitten.

"There is no way on this earth my child would ever bite anyone. He is being brought up properly and knows right from wrong".

That is an extremely naive comment.
Children react in many different ways due to many different stresses.
To imply that a child who bites has not been brought up properly is rather pompous, and shows a lack of experience.

Children are not mini-adults.

Make sure before you go in your child isnt provoking this girl!
Teachers do their best but cant watch 100% of the time.
These things happen! By the time he is 16 you will wonder why you got so upset by this.

never fall out with a mother because of a child..they mught be best friends next week!

Teacher and I have talked and it is okay now.

I am not a bully. I have said nothing to the child or the mother.

My child didn't do anything to provoke her and he and her are not friends.

It probably does come across that my feelings towards this child were a bit strong but this is my son.

The teacher will have a plan to deal with the child. There will be more going on than the child is nasty. You will have no entitlement to know the child's difficulty or what strategies are being put in place.
Kids behaviour is reactionary at that age. They react to a situation. They don't have the skills yet to plan emotionally so there for are unable to bully.
There are obviously strategies in place to stop this happening. I'd be pleased your child was listened too and the situation dealt with appropriately.
You could have a chat with the teacher to set up a strategy to let your child know what to do if this happens again.
If you're really unhappy ask her to move to the other class. The why should she move is cutting your nose off to spite your face imo.
