At 11 he just needs to be taught how to lift properly. Its my personal opinion based off experience and studies that lifting doesnt stunt growth or anything like that. You can always be safe and just not load the spine heavy.
That said, you are right that no serious "gains" will be made until he hits puberty. Just teach him how to lift properly. If you dont know, there are tons of great teaching resources on youtube. Make sure he learns to do full range of motion on lifts.
