Shadow education secretary Tristram Hunt has accused the government of "incompetence" over its handling of the threat of extremism in schools.
The schools inspection criteria were not fit for purpose, he said.
Reports into 21 Birmingham schools where extremism concerns were raised will be published on Monday.
One of them, Park View, rated as outstanding by Oftsed in 2012, will be graded inadequate, according to a leaked Ofsted report in The Guardian.
'Unfit for purpose'The report is expected to say the secondary school failed to adequately warn its pupils about extremism.
"How you can go from outstanding to inadequate? And that's because the inspection criteria is not fit for purpose," Mr Hunt told BBC Radio 4's Today programme.
"We want a much broader criteria to make sure these problems don't arise."
Mr Hunt - who is expected to set out Labour's view further during a speech to the think tank Policy Exchange later - also criticised Mr Gove personally for not acting when concerns about extremism in Bimingham were raised in 2010.
He added: "He must come to the House of Commons on Monday and place on record why he refused to act on warnings, why he rejects the evidence of the need for local oversight of schools, and why he thinks that more of the same is the answer."
Differences of opinion between Home Secretary Theresa May and Education Secretary Michael Gove, both seen as potential future Tory leaders, about how to counter the threat of extremism were laid bare in a public row earlier this week.
Allies of Mr Gove, who has long called for a hard line on fundamentalism, arguing it can breed violence, criticised the home secretary, accusing her of being too soft in her approach.
The home secretary hit back by accusing the education department of losing control of the school system and failing to act when concerns were raised about Muslim schools in Birmingham at risk of being taken over by extremists.
The prime minister has since been forced to step in after a briefing war between the ministers' respective advisers, instructing Cabinet Secretary Sir Jeremy Heywood, to investigate the row.
Shadow home secretary Yvette Cooper said neither Mrs May nor Mr Gove had got to grips with the issue.
She said there had been a lack of co-ordination across government, with the Department for Communities and Local Government being marginalised.
