Yes, girls do mature just a bit earlier than boys. Nature provided females with this little boost for the purpose of caring for their young. It does not mean that females are better than males, or that females are smarter than males, it means that females are better suited to ensuring the survival of an infant at an age that corresponds to when they could be having babies.

Answer

The difference in maturity doesn't depend on gender but on age and the individual. It is true that between girls and boys the same age during puberty there are differences which root from the earlier development of girls.

Is there a difference between how boys and girls are taught in Kenya?

Yes there is. In theory, there is not supposed to be. But in practice, many countries are patriarchal-- they value boys more than girls, and think the boys deserve more education than the girls do. While there are some upper class elites in Kenya who educate their daughters equally to their sons, among those who are in the lower classes, it is more likely that the boys would be encouraged to study, while the girls would be expected to leave school and marry. Further, even those girls who do study would not be encouraged to have careers in professions considered to be better suited for men. Again, there are exceptions, but it does appear that Kenya, like several other African countries, remains a country where expectations for girls are not as high as they ought to be, and girls are not encouraged to achieve the way boys are. I enclose a link to a study that showed how few girls are being educated in certain parts of Kenya.

However, the most recent population estimates have shown the ratio to be closer to 1.01:1, meaning for every 100 girls born, 105-107 males are born. So actually there are more boys than girls in the world, but just barely.
