This looks like a Sage bug.
Indeed, in src/sage/groups/matrix_gps/orthogonal.py one sees

        if invariant_form is not None:
            if is_FiniteField(ring):
                raise NotImplementedError("invariant_form for finite
groups is fixed by GAP")

And it should be triggerred for  your input, but it does not happen.
I've opened https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/28054 to deal with it.
