Well, that wsdl is definitely not valid. If you look in the schemas:
<types>
<xsd:schema>
<xsd:import namespace="http://dcsf.gov.uk/ISPP/Webservice/encodedTypes";
schemaLocation="https://www.parentknowhowdirectory.org.uk/isppsoap/deposit?xsd=1";
/>
</xsd:schema>
<xsd:schema>
<xsd:import namespace="http://dcsf.gov.uk/ISPP/Webservice";
schemaLocation="https://www.parentknowhowdirectory.org.uk/isppsoap/deposit?xsd=1";
/>
</xsd:schema>
</types>
You see that its importing the SAME xsds, but with two different namespaces.
That's definitely not going to work.
