Any reputable driving school will have suitable insurance in place for your son to learn to drive in their vehicle.

If you are going to teach him to drive with your own vehicle then you can add him as a named driver (although this may push up your premium).

A learner policy will cover your son if he wants to learn to drive with his own car.
