Should i be teaching him anything specific about cleaning his penis, As far as im aware his foreskin doesn't seem to retract, should i be doing anything?

No nothing. As far as I know it's not recommended anymore. It should be clean enough from showering/ bathing as usual

I assume he will learn to retract it naturally at some point?

I am a mum of 4 boys, normal bathing is sufficient until they are older.
