UK License, Flying hours in France

Hi everybody,
Here's my situation, I'm a 14 year old boy and I've always wanted to fly, it's always been my dream since I was 4. Luckily my parents are quite well off and my dad said that he would pay for my PPL. Unfortunately my parents aren't well off enough to do it in Hong Kong as it is very expensive here. I spend most of my summer in France (we have a house there and I'm part French) but I don't speak French well enough to do a French PPL. I am planning to do my PPL summer after next when I'm 16 and I was just wondering if it would be OK if I did my flying hours in France and then do my theory and test in the UK? Would it work? I've done some gliding in the holidays and a trial flight in a light aircraft, both in France. I'd really like some help with this. In the future I'm hoping to do the Cathay Pacific Cadet Programme. I've already started doing some of the theory for my PPL, with the Jeremy Pratt 'The Private Pilots License Course'.
Thanks in advance.
JJ
