Hi, I have now resolved the issue I was having and I'm posting in case it helps others.
In terms of ensuring the geometry type / projection is correct I have now moved to use the geometry_columns table (https://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/data/database/oracle.html#using-the-geometry-metadata-table) but that didn't fix my issue. The real issue was with the Namespace URI in the workspace definition. The URL I had used was actually a URL but it contained the ? character. This character was then being replicated into the XML definition in the WFS GML outputs. I seems that MapInfo didn't mind this at all but QGIS was being picky for some reason. Given that it is a unique URI rather than a URL I just replaced the question mark with a forward splash and presto it is working now 😊 Perhaps it is worth an update to the docs (https://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/data/webadmin/workspaces.html#edit-a-workspace) to recommend that special characters are avoided but then I'm probably the only person in the world that has ever done it so I'm happy to just say it works and move on if we don't think it needs documenting. I will of course cross post this to the GeoServer mailing list as well as it is not a QGIS issue. Thanks to those that tried to help me work out the issue and I hope this post is helpful to others.
